New bell design

A new bell design contributes to optimum resistance for a powerful tonal core. The new design also enhances playability in the upper register. Thinner valve casing and pistons, modified angle of branch tube (knuckle)

Thinner valve casing and pistons, as well as the modified angle of the branch tube (knuckle), result in improved response and provide the performer with an ideal blowing resistance.
